My Prayer Shawl

“Bring forth your prayer shawls” this morning as I came to sit, He spoke those words into my heart. 

I have this beautiful prayer shawl that a friend brought me from Jerusalem.  I have had it for a few years already.  Hanging in the office, it stays as an ornament. It pleasing to the eyes. 

Today is the 1st time I am able to really bring it out, I wrapped myself with it and allowed myself to learn the true meaning behind it.  Little do I know that it has a name. It’s called a “Tallit” used by the Jews rabbi or Jewish man.  I started my quest in google. I found few people and how they gave me their own interpretation.   Marilyn Hichey calls it a “super natural mantel with the White and blue representing the Holy Spirit present with us and the purity of God”.  Okay,  I accept that. 

Google to the rescue one more time. I looked up the high priest garments. (Which to me it’s a representation of our armor of God.  Ephesians 6:13- The Turban = the helmet of Salvation, shoulder piece=the breastplate of righteousness, Sash= Belt of truth , but that’s for another study, )

I must continue, with the help of my favorite gal "google" trying to find something else. I’m missing something but I don’t know what it is.  Then I found  these guy from “Happy Tabernacle and He explained it as a tool that God has given us; a closet: being covered by a prayer closet, enhancing our prayer life, speaking to God without distractions “ This guy gave a scripture. I like Him ..!!!! people could deny you but not the word of God. 

Numbers 15:38... “throughout the generations to come you are to make tassels on the corner of your garments, with a blue cord on each tassel. (V.39) You  will have these tassels to look at and so you will remember all the commands of the lord , that you may obey them and not prostitute yourself by going after the lust of your own hearts and eyes.  (V.40) Then you will remember to obey all my commands and will be consecrated to your God “ Okay, something about 4 grabs my attention, but I need something else. 

I’m praying looking all around.  A few hours have passed,  I call my Jewish friend (since I trust her) to help me, but no, she is busy. I know God is working something in me. 

I’m a little apprehensive, I don’t trust everyone or everything, it comes from the spiritual abuse I suffered which The Lord is using this quest for me to heal.  Like pastor Bob said “I want to be a Voice not an Echo” 

Finally I find this teaching on “The Tallit”  by Dr.Terry Harmon.  There is something about this guy I like. You guys have to watch and listen to how He explains and brings forth scripture after scripture. Again, He brings me back to Numbers 15:37-41 

Listen to him back and forth taking notes. Asking God for my personal revelation. I’m done. I could feel his presence all around me. I’m praying   And ask for forgiveness for what had held me back from to many people. Trust, I need to trust again.  Not everyone is the same.  I’m asking The Lord to removed from deep inside the seed of miss trust and to heal that area in my life.  And that's when it happened.  The Lord reminded me of the 4 corners of The Tallit and a scripture “ I have longed to gather you together as a hen gather her chicks under her wing” this scripture is found on  Matthew 23:37 and is The Lord Jesus Christ crying over us. 

He spoke to my heart about the fourth corners on the Tallit.  I held on to them and continued to pray. I don’t know what was coming out, because I have learn to let him lead me on my spiritual language, I don’t know how long I kneel in His presence.   He spoke to me about the 4 corners of the world, (Isaiah 11:12)from North to South from East to West. Four representing creation and world. 

He allowed me to see how this Coronavirus Covid 19 has brought us together.  Today this scripture has been fulfilled in our own eyes, The Lord himself gathers us under His wings.  We find refuge in the shadows of His wings (Ps 36:7

I’m undone, I no longer live but Christ lives in me. 

I finished my time  with The Lord with communion; together, alone, special and powerful. 

The Lord met me on our 1st 5 days of prayer, fasting and communion. I can’t wait to see what he would have for us tomorrow. 

 “Open your mouth and I will filled it” Ps. 81:10
